Biography
Quintus Sempronius Faustinius was born in 104 AD in Smyrna (Izmir, Turkey) to a family of Roman citizens, and he became the legate of Legio XIV Forctis in Judaea. In 132 AD, the Bar Kokhba revolt broke out, but he was confident that it was just a small group of Jewish brigands and he did not bother asking for reinforcements. However, he was ambushed at the Battle of Jaljulya with only two centuriae in hand and he was slain.
